Welcome to Redville

"Welcome to Redville" tells the story of a young couple on the run, after a violent robbery, who end up in a small town. There are unexpected twists and turns that keep the plot moving forward in director Isaac H. Eaton indie movie. He puts a quirky spin on this dramatic thriller combining surprises, humor and a cast of eccentric characters. The lead, Jack Manley (The Order), has a strong star presence, and the quirky Chris Elliott (Grounding Day, Schitt's Creek.) plays Redville's small town sheriff. The seductive Sheriff's daughter Lila is played by the beautiful newcomer Sabrina Haskett. Eaton's movies always had a unique quality, associated with indie productions, and this new release from director Eaton is no different. One of his earlier movies Shadow Hours, starring Balthazar Getty and Peter Weller, premiered at the Sundance Film Festival and was a Grand Jury Selection Nominee in the dramatic category. As the WGA and SAG strikes still looms in Hollywood, we could and probably should be exposed to more unique nonmainstream productions. Welcome to indie movies, enjoy the ride....

This is one of the worst movies I've ever wasted my time watching. Because of the reviews, I stuck it out...for nothing. Why would IMBD allow these manipulative people to write these reviews? AND why was it given a 7.0? It's a 3 at best. One of those children's "scary" shows like Goosebumps could possibly use this but I would even doubt that. It's just not creative enough. After the first 5 minutes, you've figured the entire movie out. As unimaginable as you can possibly get. A high school first time writer could do better than this drool.

There's no twist. There's no surprise. There's no story. There's no characters. There's no hero's. There's nothing to this film.

Shame on all those who wrote positive reviews. You've wasted everyone's time. No one with an IQ above that of a monkey could enjoy this movie.

I thoroughly enjoyed this film! It's a high octane thrill ride with plenty of unexpected twists and turns from start to finish. The storyline is unexpected and keeps you interested throughout. The cinematography is top notch! I thought the characters were interesting and the acting was well done from the leads to the increasingly eccentric townspeople. Chris Elliott is always great for some comic relief. The two leads, Jake Manley and Highdee Kuan and good chemistry and played well off each other. It was well directed as well. I would feel very comfortable recommending Welcome to Redville to friends and family. Enjoy the Ride!!!

Highdee Kuan and Jake Manley star in this robbery turned dadaesque odyssey into the town of Redville. The screenplay accomplishes an earnest, though brief, exploration of the tension between commitment and desire, while also delivering a sort of cabinet of curiosities provided by the quirky residents of Redville. Manley delivers a solid performance as an archetypal bad boy with a rough past, while the absurdity of the plot keeps this portrayal from being overbearing. Kuan portrays a more low-key and down-to-earth Bonny to Manley's Clyde, which functions well in the more rooted first act, though she is somewhat left behind by the rapid succession of events in the second. Overall, Welcome to Redville sets out to present the set piece of a weird small town propelling a story about a relationship entering a new phase of its growth. Director Isaac Eaton hits the mark in this campy film on a small budget.

There is a disturbing trend in these movie reviews. It's not like they are just a little off from being correct. They are the polar opposite from reality. It's as if people are being paid to say the exact opposite of what a normal person would say about the movie. This movie was completely boring, there was not a high-octane moment in it, it has the special effects of a movie created by grade schoolers and a predictable overused plot that will end in disgust and anger for any sensible person. If you paid 5 dollars for this movie you are the victim of a sex crime. I need a counselor, I'm scarred emotionally from this horrendous waste of my time and money. There really is nothing interesting, funny or good in this movie, it's a bucket of nothing. Read the positive reviews, watch this horrible movie and then read this review again and you tell me who was really telling the truth about it.
